The report said: “Over the years, the demand for AI-based solutions has increased considerably in the diagnostics industry as these solutions have immense potential in medical image diagnosis. Some advantages include faster analysis of diagnostic images, efficient interpretation of the smallest possible data often missed by radiologists, and improved imaged triage and clinical decision support. Extensive growth in digital health has allowed healthcare providers to support patients through novel treatment approaches. AI technologies provide doctors tools that facilitate them diagnose and essentially treat patients better… healthcare providers are gradually accepting the likely benefits of AI-based solutions.

MarketsAndMarkets continued: “Based on component, the AI in medical diagnostics market is bifurcated into software, services, and hardware. The software segment accounted for the largest share of the global AI in medical diagnostics Market in 2022. The large share of this segment is attributed to as the software solutions help healthcare providers a competitive edge over others, despite the challenges of being short-staffed and challenging increasing imaging scan volumes. Based on end users, the AI in medical diagnostics market is bifurcated into hospitals, diagnostic imaging centers, diagnostic laboratories, and other end users. The hospitals segment accounted for the largest share of the global AI in medical diagnostics Market in 2022. Factors such as growing inclination of hospitals toward the automation and digitization of radiology patient workflow, and growing adoption of minimally invasive procedures in hospitals and healthcare facilities to advance the quality of patient care and focus on patient centric care. In 2022, North America accounted for the largest market share of AI in medical diagnostics market. Factors such as the shortfall of radiologists, the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, improved research on the ethical implementation of AI in diagnostic tools, and increased funding for research are the key factors driving the growth of his regional market.”

Treatment AI (OTCQB: TREIF) (CSE: TRUE) Passes Medical School Clinical Exam with 92% Success Rate - Treatment.com AI Inc. (Frankfurt: 939) (the “Company” or “Treatment”) is pleased to announce that its AI medical information support platform was used in the “Objective Structured Clinical Examination” (“OSCE”), a standard clinical exam of diagnostic aptitude at medical and nursing schools, passing the exam with a 92% success rate.

Treatment gave a third-year non-medical college student the Treatment mobile app and had them join a class of third-year medical school students taking their annual clinical exam. The OSCE exam is a standard exam given at medical, nursing and other professional healthcare schools. They are integral in medical education, as they allow a student to practice and demonstrate clinical diagnostic skills in an artificial medical scenario. During the exam, students enter an exam room to assess an actor who has been instructed on imitating a patient with a specific disease. Passing the OSCE is a national requirement for graduation in 57 countries worldwide (including US, Canada and United Kingdom) for medical and nursing students.

In this case, Treatment gave the student its Treatment AI mobile app and sent them in to examine 12 'simulated' patients. The student used the app to ask the patient questions, then left the room and wrote a clinical note summarizing the findings and suggesting the most likely possible diagnoses. The college student, with no previous medical training, entered the simulated patient's age, sex, and initial symptom, and followed the prompts to complete an individualized assessment. The student then used the information summarized by the application to write a medical note describing the history, exam, recommended labs, and diagnoses. The student passed the exam, getting 11 of 12 “1st most likely” diagnoses correct. This included the student successfully making a variety of complex diagnoses including colon cancer, appendicitis, acute myocardial infarction, diabetes, and patellar tendonitis.

Dr. Kevin Peterson, MD, MPH, Chief Medical Officer stated “The ability of the AI software to identify the pertinent positives and negatives, together with physical exam findings, and turn them into a precise description and reasoned differential diagnoses was remarkable. This is an AI tool that any medical professional can use in their pocket.”

Dr. Essam Hamza, MD, CEO of Treatment.com AI added “We are extremely excited with the power and accuracy of our AI Medical diagnostic engine and the faith medical schools have in utilizing it, for testing and training the medical professionals of tomorrow. This underlying software is also the foundation of new products we are planning to launch in the healthcare marketplace later this year, in our mission to dramatically disrupt how healthcare is delivered worldwide”.   CONTINUED… Read this full press release and more news for Treatment.com AI at:   https://treatment.com/press/
